Brighton Beach Rod Stewart
Intro
[Cadd9] [G] [Cadd9] [G]
Verse 1
I re[Cadd9]member when you were only seven[G]teen
You were the [Cadd9]finest girl that my eyes had ever [G]seen
I guess you found it [Em]hard to simply just ig[C]nore
This scruffy beat up [Em]working class teenage trouba[C]dour[D]
[G] [D] [Em]
So w[C]e fell in love and I toured your heart with my out of tune guitar
[G] [D] [Em]
Y[C]ou were wonderful you were mystical and the envy of all of my friends
Seems like [G]only yester[D]day under the [C]stars on Brighton [G]Beach
Verse 2
Oh what a [Cadd9]time it was what a time to be a[G]live
Remember [Cadd9]Janice and Jimmy Kennedy and King how they [G]cried
I sang to you the [Em]songs of Ramblin' [C]Jack
You were Greta [Em]Garbo and I was Karo[C]lac[D]
[G] [D] [Em]
An[C]d we played so hard and we loved so hard seemed we never ever slept
They were [G]crazy days they were [D]wonderful days and I [Em]loved you with all of my
[C]heart
Seems like [G]only yester[D]day under the [C]stars on Brighton [G]Beach
Bridge
[Em]Your daddy had plans that did [C]not include me
And he [Em]won't stay away from your [C]door
And I [Em]dreamed how I dreamed I could [C]steal you away
To some [Am]far off distant [D]shore
Verse 3
Then [Cadd9]early one morning I awoke to find you [G]gone
You wrote 'I [Cadd9]love you baby but it's time for me to move [G]on'
And so my teenage [Em]heart laid scattered on the [C]floor
I swear to God I [Em]could not have loved you any[C]more[D]
And as I [G]sit here tonight playing [D]with my kids wondering
[Em]Where you are in this [C]world
[G] [D] [Em]
Did you fin[C]d your man are you happy now do you ever stop and think about me
How I [G]long for yester[D]day under the [C]stars on Brighton [G]Beach
